re: Nice shot. Looks like 300 yards on that one ... ;-)

Good line, but I'm not happy with the end result.

Essentially, what we said, is that "we don't trust any Arab, any Muslim. In our eyes you are all terrorists." This was a reputable company, doing business all over the world. We took the Arab best and said you are no better than the worst Arab terrorist. Pure racism.

It's no different than saying "all" black are lazy, so we won't hire any blacks. Or "all" Koreans are arrogant, so we won't hire any Koreans.

How do you think the ME will react? I don't think I have to say. We took an opportunity to reduce the tensions and instead increased the tension.

Some may celebrate that; not me. It just makes things worse.
